Any app that claims to save battery only uses more battery by doing processes you can do yourself, so all you are doing is wasting battery instead of saving it...

~°~°~°~°~°~°~°~°~°~°~°~°~°~°~°~

Phone: Samsung Galaxy s2 T989 Hercules

Rom: Jedi Jelly 4

Kernel: Insecure Kernel

Radio: LB7 Blaze

~°~°~°~°~°~°~°~°~°~°~°~°~°~°~°~

I am going to try and make an app, if anyone wants help this beautiful talented celebrity in making it just message me! :p
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mycars12:
well actually it does save battery but it depends on how well you know your device

if you know you can manage it yourself then ok you dont need it but it also helps by turning off data when the screen is off

but really for most people its not worth it and i would highly not recommend it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mike-y:
I used it on another (older) phone and it helped noticeably and I bought the plus version.

On this phone, I'm not so sure. Newer phones seem pretty efficient in the way they turn on/off radios. Currently, I can see JD offering a little benifit if you use it to schedule your syncing times at longer intervals (and you get a lot of email/notifications), and using the night time feature to shut down sync altogether during the night.

On this phone, I've actually had much better results using some customized init.d scripts put together by someone in my other phone's forum. I'm still testing them out, so perhaps I'll have him post it here once I know for sure there aren't any issues.

on this phone, those scripts made much more of a difference than JD did. here's some screen shots of the last two charges. The scripts seems to help most with saving battery when the screen is off. I'm a light user also, and hardly used my phone yesterday.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] CB620:
What are your settings?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mike-y:
I'm on Darkside Evo rom (ICS 4.04) and the jedi ics kernal basted on 3.0.8

I turned JD off last night before I went to bed and when I got up for work this morning, my battery had dropped from 68% to 48%. With JD on, I usually only get about 9-10% drop. So I'm keeping JD.

======

*edit* I had tried that cpu sleeper app (old version I believe), and I think it messed up some things I had going before I installed it, since my batter life dropped off a lot. So I'm going to reflash the rom today and set everything up again without it. I see there is a newer version in the market, so perhaps I'll try that one later.

======

For JD, I use the customize profile, and have the mobile data option enabled (turns off when screen is off),

I have the wifi option disabled (since I have it off most of the time anyway). And you can't use wifi calling if it's enabled because it turns wifi off when the screen is off.

sync is at every 30 mins

Night mode from 12am to 6am

I don't use app control, since I didn't want data enabled when I wasn't using my phone

Also, go to the google play store app, and disable automatic updating. I only have it set to update over wifi only. And be sure to disable notifications in any social networking app like facebook.

and use dark wallpapers, since the screen sucks the most juice. Mine are nearly black.

with the jedi kernal, you can use antutu cpu master to underclock and undervolt the phone. I just enabled some minor UV and UC, so we'll see how it does.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Darth:
I paid for JD a long time ago....before I ever knew about programs like gsam. And when I saw it woke my phone over 200 times in a work day on aggressive mode....I uninstalled it and will never use it again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jcnbama:
Alot of people talk alot of smack about Juice Defender. I decided to go awhile without it and noticed a considerable difference over a week period. I'll never go without it again. It's reliable easy to use and I've got the free version so it's even better. I know it's not for everyone for whatever reason but I work in a building 10+ hours a day and the fact that it turns my data off for me as needed is great..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sanford_brag:
Can any one confirm that this app keeps the phone awake too often than help it going into deep sleep
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] icenight89:
i can confirm. i am a credible source, check my thanks meter :good:

your experience differs from many, pretty much everyone else lol. but whatever works for u. but I'm almost sure that with proper configuration even with the data left on all day u'd get more juice. that being said I'm not u and I don't use your phone so I agree to disagree
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] nikufellow:
well i never trust third party anti viruses and battery savers - for a belief that they are all gimmicks has somehow been implanted into my mind during the early stages of my xda induction. But following the hype all around regarding jb i have had tried it once but didn't notice any difference - neither did it make things worse nor did it make em better - so i gave it up and now believe that a power user has many stuff at his discretion that he could configure to his liking to make extraction of juice from his pack more or less suitable with respect to his usage patterns ;)

just my 2 cents

why fix it if it ain't broken ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jordanishere:
Juice defender is for noobs who don't know how to turn off sync, GPS, data or wifi.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jcnbama:
CPU spy and better battery stats will demonstrate that this app does not cause wake locks or cause you're phone to wake to often. All juice defender is is essentially a toggle for data. And I'm apparently not the only one with a positive experience with this app. I put forth an effort to not use it because I trust most the guys in these forums especially ASD's this was just one area where personal experience out weighed others. It's a free app. Heck, test it yourself. Lol. That's the real best answer for anyone.

---------- Post added at 10:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:43 PM ----------

Anyone can turn off simple toggles. The handiest thing about JD is that it's automatic and easy to set up. I don't have to turn on and off all these various things all day. Set it and forget it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mike-y:
yeah, it would drive me crazy turning toggles on and off every single time I touched my phone to look at something. JD automates things and limits how often your phone syncs if you set it up properly.

right now I'm sitting at 18 hours up time with 72% battery left. 37 minutes of voice calls and 14 minutes with the screen on. I don't use my phone much at work because I'm in front of a computer all day, so I typically get better battery life than most people who are out-and-about all day.

I just got this phone 2 weeks ago, and I was getting about 18-24 hours total for each charge.. Now that I've got some things figured out, using my init.d scripts and JD, I'm getting about 48 hrs on a single charge.

after this charge, I'll disable JD and see how the phone does. typically at night, my phone loses less than 1% per hour. so maybe 7%-8% battery loss over 10 hours or so. before JD, it was like 15-20% loss over the same amount of time. I figure that's a pretty good test since the phone isn't being touched at all. But I'll test again, just to be sure it wasn't anything else I installed (since I had been trying different roms and apps a lot).

I haven't installed anything new since the weekend, so the phone should be pretty well settled in by now. Next charge, I'll disable JD and report back.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jcnbama:
Here's the thing. I consider myself to be a power user. Maybe I just don't know what some of these other options are. If there's a better way to do it I'm open to more education. I like to learn new things. So let's here it. What else can I use to turn off my mobile data when I turn my screen off to save battery. Something automated and easy to use.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] icenight89:
I can tell u straight up if you're using JD to disable the internal radios and only turn them on once every 30 minutes or so you won't get as much without it to have 48 hours total time off one charge, u must be doing that, or having it switch to airplane mode inbetween certain hours. nI would also think u probably have location awareness on, and switch to WiFi at work.

Nah HTC fubar'd the source for ICS on our device (others too iirc) so any kernel compiled from HTC's source will have the issue unless its patched.

The kernels we have are HTC's work, I think forked from google android ICS (hence being 3.0.x)

kernel

I have the same problem, but my problem is with the kernel 3.0x,

so the problem is Sd card unexpectedly removed for every rom who has kernel 3.0x,

all started when i got ota ics,

htc repair center say's i have to replace motherboard for 250$, but i know, that the problem is in kernel 3.0x.
[HTC Incredible S] TheMegosh:
Is this multi-touch issue related to the input delay that is present on most of the Sense based roms? The only exception to this is the chinese kang kernel, where I beleive the input delay is fixed. The problem I have is that I'm not very excited by the Sense's UI. I've noticed that the 2.6.4 hacked ICS-JB kernel seems to have this input delay fixed, or greatly reduced... Is it possible to get the patches/changes we need from there?

I just got my hands on a Galaxy S1, and despite the crappy camera, lower RAM and lack of a flashlight, the seemingly perfect touch input is something that I'm very torn over. Now I'm in a position of giving my Inc S to one of my relatives, or the Galaxy S1. I love the community for the Inc S and am very excited by the progress made to JB since December but am extremely tired of not being able to play all games, or wait for my keyboard to catch up with what I've typed because of this F#!@#ing input lag. Anyone have any opinion on the things I've discussed or have something to add to it? I've got a week to decide what I like better...

Before someone mentions not experiencing any input lag: There is a selectable option in developer options, called "Show Touches". If you have this enabled, and try moving your finger around your screen in various patterns, you'll notice that the white circle trails behind where your finger is by a large amount. If you try this on other phones, the distance at which the white circle trails behind your finger is greatly reduced. There are also situations where tapping the screen rapidly in different areas is occasionally completely ignored.
[HTC Incredible S] saneksem:
No one reported about that probelm,I don't think it's kernel issue,tru to format your sd card or use another if you can

so i'm from russian forum,it's big and no one repoted about it

it's not only sense based rom's issue

you can test unofficial cm10,v1 have multitouch issue too,can't say something about later versions.

2.6.x kernel just doesn't have that multitouch bug,i think it's one more reason why all CM rom's were based on it,even 3.x kernel source was released
[HTC Incredible S] Splux:
No, we had CM9/10 ROM's based on the 2.6.x kernel because no one managed to get it booting with a 3.x kernel until very recently.
[HTC Incredible S] saneksem:
ok,thx for information)
[HTC Incredible S] jancis201991:
I have formated sd card, i have bought two new one's(same problem), and when i put files bigger then 4gb and try to run game, game starts and i get back to home screen and in notification bar shows sd card removed unexpectedly.

Everything works flalwless on every rom who uses gingerbread (hacked) kernel, on 3.0x kernel roms the problem starts all over again.

Hey guys,

My Nex4 has, just like many others, a buzzing earpiece, but just slightly in my case. Now I'm wondering what the actual problems of this are. My battery life is quite good, 1,5 day of medium usage with 3-4 hours of screen time. It's also unhearable when you move it away from your ear, so that's not the problem either. Finally, I can make good quality calls without being bothered by the earpiece.

Thanks in advance for your answers.

Speaker voice quality has been above par for Micromax phones! No need to worry about tha! 8 MP cam will be pretty decent considering it is a Low-mid range phone. It definitely can run all the HD games available in the market. It is a quad core phone, so the performance will be pretty good. All these things i said based on using previous micromax products. But the only thing that doesn't want to make me buy Mircromax, karbonn etc is they have no xda forum support which is kinda sad given that many developers are from INDIA!

[HTC Desire S] DieLyn:
Hi there

My Desire S is currently Unlocked and S-On(HTC Dev) with HBoot 2.00.002 and radio 3822.10.08.04.

I've been using the Desire XS Rom with Amidabuddha's Tweaked 3 X kernel. I've been experiencing the camera issue with this ROM and the dev recommends that you upgrade the radio and hboot.

My problem stands with the fact that I can't upgrade them with S-On. I've searched and found no definitive explanations as how to do this. Could you please give me directions to follow as I can't brick this phone !
[HTC Desire S] Jack_R1:
You can't change radio or HBOOT with S-ON.

You can install RUU that includes the newer radio and HBOOT, and then unlock again and install custom ROM again.

This should be enough info.

Could someone please show me a link to an RUU with the HBoot and Radio as mentioned above ? Can't seem to find them in the index and HTC Dev is down.
[HTC Desire S] DieLyn:
Would this require me relocking my Hboot ?

EDIT :

So from quite a bit of searching, this is what I think I need to do...

1. Relock bootloader. From this thread I see that you relock the bootloader with "fastboot oem lock" ?

2. Install an RUU with Hboot 0.98.00000. I need a link to this.

3. Unlock and S-Off the device using Revolutionary.

From here, I'm a bit lost as to how to proceed to get to Hboot 2.00.2002 and radio 3831.19.00.110.

Are my above steps correct ? Normally, I'm not so lost with these things, its just a bit confusing especially because I'm stuck with S-On and hboot 2.00.0002.
[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
AW: [Q] Changing Radio with S-on ?

Nearly correct, just you'll have to use misc_version to change the software version reported by the phone before the ruu will install. Getting hold of an RUU could be the most difficult step at the moment, though.
